Apple Inc on June 20 recalled some MacBook Pro laptops sold between September 2015 and February 2017 due to a “battery that may overheat and pose a safety risk”. 

The Cupertino, California-based technology giant said in a statement that it is asking customers to stop using the computers. The problem affects the 15in version of the older MacBook Pro. The company said it will replace the batteries in these models at no charge.
